Gwyneth & Maya Rudolph to Make Music Magic?!

At theEmmy's this weekendGlee creator Ryan Murphy told E!that he wants to write an original musical for Gwyneth Paltrow.

Inspired in part by Country Strong—"I loved Country Strong...I love it when she's drunk and on the floor spitting up pills."—and no doubt in part by her Emmy-winning turn on Glee, it'll be the third time the two have worked together (he directed her in Running With Scissors).

Murphy says he's writing the movie for Maya Rudolph, too, but that he won't divulge anymore—which means there is more to divulge! Paltrow`s role on Glee won over a good chunk of people who couldn't stand the actress-turned-mogul and we imagine a musical comedy would go over better than that albumshe's been talking about making. Plus, everyone loves Maya Rudolph. Here's hoping for a 2012 premiere!
